Procurement performance management tool

CONTEXT: Managing your organisation's performance is an integral component of good governance and improving procurement outcomes. The performance management tool provides a basis for continuous improvement and reporting to internal and external stakeholders. The tool lists a number of measures to report against. Areas noted
with 'Y' are suggested as minimum reporting standards for performance management. The greater the number of indicators reported against, the more comprehensive an overview of performance. The tool should be tailored to reflect the specific performance measures applicable to the structure of your organisation and the complexity of
your procurement activities. The tool provides two examples that detail how relevant elements of the tool can be synthesised to present performance measures to internal and external stakeholders.
